Some of the items in your document seem more like non-functional requirements that I would expect to find in a specification, not a design document,e.g., security, privacy, legal.

This is great. I've been riding along with the air attack plane on the Timber Fire near Big Sur, CA. It would be cool to see the fire perimeter overlay (like in app.watchduty.org).

I'm stuck. Does that mean I chose the wrong word earlier and used up an essential letter? Does the sequence of word guesses matter? Is there an Undo feature so I can back up and try a different order of guesses? Can I get a hint? Is there a way to give up and see the solution (order of word guesses)?

Personally, all the animations of stick figures moving and jumping is slightly annoying and offers little valuable information. I might enjoy something like showing a person's national flag (for where they are logged in from), or a timer for how long they've been on the site. Instead of the "street" metaphor for the graphic (benches, trees), maybe a Mercator Projection that locates an emoji at each person's location.

What's the length limit? I tried pasting some text and got this message: code length overflow. (85700>18672)

Error installing from .deb: Dependency is not satisfiable: python 3.10. So I have to downgrade from 3.12 to use this?

The article seems to equate QA with testing, which is a short-sighted view. QA also includes things like standards, and importantly, design and code reviews, which are actually the best way to improve quality.

Cool, thanks for this. It seems this data comes from OpenStreeMap and has some phones not listed in Payphone-Go. Curious about the discrepancy.

This is a fun idea. It occurs to me that I would enjoy seeing unvisited phones on the map in a different color. [Edit: Oh, now I see green dots for visited phones. Was this always there and I just hadn't noticed?]

I know of a working payphone that is not on the Payphone Go map. Photo: https://i.postimg.cc/Dw4sCDpJ/payphone.jpg The fact that I know of one makes me wonder, are there are others? Is the list the author obtained from PUC incomplete? Is this phone operating unlicensed? Has the phone died since I last visited a year ago?

Geez, how is this comment so far down the list? Reading Dario's list of all the bad things AI could do, I kept asking myself "who would be so stupid as to give AI control of said instruments of destruction?" Dario writes as though the AI just assumes control of the physical world because it is SO POWERFUL.
